Experts Worried About China’s Intelligence Network as The UN Global Data Centre in Zhejiang
The US government severely discourage Chinese mobile applications and cloud service providers in recent years, stopping the Chinese government from getting sensitive data. However, the United Nations Secretariat cooperated with China recently, established a global data centre in Deqing County, Zhejiang Province, and the “geospatial centre” that uses satellite surveillance technology to process data from various UN member states. The United Nations officials who signed the Data Centre protocol are also from China. Experts worried that the data centre would become China’s global intelligence network.
A former reporter of The Wall Street Journal and a researcher at the Hudson Institute, Claudia Rosett disclosed the data centre location in Deqing County, Zhejiang Province last week. She criticized the plan was that China uses the name of the United Nations, to strengthen the scope of surveillance.
